Considering renting out your spare room on Airbnb? You may want to hold off for now. According to reports, subletting or renting out rooms or homes on the site is apparently a legal grey area. The UAE isn’t the first place where the rules are unclear, as authorities in parts of the US and Spain block short-term Airbnb-type rentals, and fine Airbnb for failing to comply with local rental regulations.
